Summary of the contracting process

Southend-on-Sea City Council has concluded a procurement process for "Transitional Supported Housing" services aimed at providing support to ex-offenders. The procuring authority, a sub-central government entity, is based in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. This tender falls under the services industry category, specifically housing services, within the UKH31 region. The process, initiated as a tender and now in the contract award stage, was completed with contracts effective from 1st April 2026 to 30th June 2026. Although the procurement was conducted under a 'below threshold - unknown' method, it is significant for the targeted industry.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities for service providers in the housing sector, especially those experienced in handling transitional housing for vulnerable groups such as ex-offenders. Large-scale businesses, like HOME GROUP LIMITED from Newcastle, which has secured the contract, demonstrate the type of organisations well-suited to compete for similar opportunities. Businesses with expertise in offering comprehensive housing solutions can significantly benefit by engaging with such public tenders, facilitating both service expansion and community support through government partnerships.
